DuHam.; R. pomponia Hedoute Kos. p. 63.; among which are the well-known rose de Meaux, an old inhabitant of the gardens; =«^' "â¢â ^â °*^i>»- the mossy de Meaux, the dwarf, and small Provence; the rose de Rheims; and the common and proliferous pompone. These roses should be cut down every year, when they have done flowering, that they may send up new shoots every spring to produce flowers. If this be not done, the principal branches will dry up, and become bare like those of the bramble. This species is distinguished from R. damascena by the sepals not being reflexed, and the flowers having their petals curved inwards, so as, in the double state, to give the flower the appearance of the heart of a cabbage, whence the name of the cabbage rose. Its fruit is either oblong or roundish, !)ut never elongated. From R. gallica it is distinguished by the flowers being tlrooping, and by the larger size of the prickles, with a more robust habit. -" 32. R. ga'llica Lilt. The French Rose. Identification. Liu.
